Top 10 failed states in the world, worrisome for India

The top 10 failed states declared by the journal and Fund for Peace, an independent research organisation in the latest are listed below; the result basically is worrisome for India. Read on…

  1. Somalia
  2. Zimbabwe
  3. Sudan
  4. Chad
  5. Democratic Republic of Congo
  6. Iraq
  7. Afghanistan
  8. Central African Republic
  9. Guinea and
  10. Pakistan.

India is placed 87th among the 177 countries under study, with its score showing an improvement over the previous year. But its neighbours fare badly in this ranking, with Sri Lanka placed 12th, Bangladesh 19th and Nepal 25th.

Though India’s ranking is good, but there is nothing to cheer about, we are basically surrounded by failed and an almost failed states! New Delhi must start thinking how it can positively influence these countries.

At the other end of the spectrum, the bottom 10 in the list are the top achievers: Norway, Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, Ireland, Denmark, New Zealand, Australia and the Netherlands.

Nigerian leaders should not be taken seriously in any of the world conference that have something to do with good leadership. Nigerian States have not fail, but our leaders have fail and they should be brought to book before something harmful than this would happen.
